What to watch for
The result of this game could have implications for the draft lottery, which gives the team with the worst record the best odds to win the No. 1 pick.
Entering today the Hawks (21-55) are tied with the Grizzlies for the NBA's second-worst record behind the Suns (19-58). The Magic (22-53) are right behind the Hawks and Grizzlies. The Magic won two of the first three meetings against the Hawks, with both victories in Orlando.
The Hawks made a flurry of transactions today to fortify their injury-thinned roster. They recalled three players from their G League affiliate in Erie, Pa.: Tyler Cavanaugh, Josh Magette and Andrew White III. The Hawks also signed Jeremy Evans to a 10-day contract.
